[QUOTE="donna723, post: 292071, member: 1883"] Sorry ... been a bit caught up here. I haven't talked to him since Monday but he was going back to work Monday night. After they agreed to accept the note from the mental health clinic, he still had to get another release from an MD saying he was physically able to go back to work. He went in to a clinic near him and the doctor looked at his arm and had no problem writing him a slip to go back to work. Almost funny though, in the exam room, he had been sitting on the exam table and when he went to get up, his knee popped (which it has done for over 10 years, ever since he played high school basketball). He said the doctors eyes just lit right up and he immediately starts going on about "torn cartlidge" and sending him right over for MRI's and several other tests! Apparently the better your insurance is, the more tests they want to do. He just grabbed his note for work and left. But if you ever wonder why medical bills are sky-high .....! And as for his mental state, he [I]appears[/I] to be OK but with him, you just never know. He seems fine and it helps that he's going back to work - he didn't need all that extra stress of being out of work and no paycheck coming in. I have to resist the temptation to call him every day. NO 28 year old guy wants his mother calling him every day checking up on him! But I'm going to call him this afternoon, just to see how he is and to inquire about when his next appointment with the counselor is ... I know he's made one, which is great. With him, about all I can do is try to keep in touch with him, hope and pray and keep my fingers crossed. [/QUOTE]
